I tried it on the latest Cygwin from CVS as well as on Cygwin 1.7.27 (32 bit versions) and it works fine for me. Your testcase is missing an ftruncate or two., btw. I guess you're aware of that and just dropped them to get a the simple testcase. Corinna -- Corinna Vinschen Please, send mails regarding Cygwin to Cygwin Maintainer cygwin AT cygwin DOT com Red Hat
